    Summary The Chief Judicial Magistrate at Bhuj allowed the cybercrime victim's application under Sections 497 and 503 of the BNSS (Bharatiya Nagrik Suraksha Sanhita), ordering the release of Rs. 4,28,597.56 frozen across 224 bank accounts. The court found the investigating officer failed to comply with Section 106(3) requirements by not reporting the seizure to the magistrate, and since no account holder objected and the accounts appeared to be fake vehicles for fraud, the victim is entitled to the recovered funds as interim custody pending final disposal. Banks are instructed to transfer the amount within 10 days without demanding NOC from other agencies when multiple freezes exist.
